Largely the same as if they just disappeared and stopped logging in. The community would become abandoned and unmoderated.

Reddit had a system where you could request banned or inactive communities, Lemmy instances don't usually have this, instead requiring you message that instance's admins directly.

kbin.social implemented this before it went away, so i imagine one can still do this on magazines hosted on mbin instances.

I mean really any instance can do it, it's as simple as creating a community to request other communities. Most just haven't chosen to do it, unfortunately.

That's true. kbin's was a bit more slick - you could click a button that was on the page for the magazine (community) itself to make the request, but really it's just a minor UX convenience

That is actually a pretty nice feature. Would be great if we had it here. Though it isn't explicitly needed, request communities are also a good solution.
